Skin-on-Frame: Wear strips on bow and stern.

I used steam bent 3/16" x 3/8" oak screwed into the whip stitched seams but the seams are so coarse that it doesn't sit well. What do others use for these and how do you attach them? I have some travel trailer peal and stick rubberized roof patch that bonds to anything but it is stark white.
